Lambda razors

THE TiRes HAS ARRIVED.  FINALLY.

How do I sum up my initial reaction?
WOW!!!

The razor and the finish are perfect.  The weight is 68 grams (see I can get technical).  The balance is perfect and feels just right in my hand.  Theo has outdone himself again.
My first shave will be tomorrow.  I would do it tonight, but I used the Tithena this morning and there just isn't anything to shave.

Got my hands on a V1 Ares. First shave was fantastic with a Feather. It cuts close enough that I think a milder, smoother blade will be the ticket. Great razor the V1.

That took a Hot Minute to get, Congratulations !

Wally’s pictures are much better than mine, but here is my initial impression of the Ares Ti:

I had the privilege of being able to purchase one of the recently released Ares v2 Titanium razors. It arrived over the weekend while I was on a business trip. This past Sunday, therefore, was the first day I was able to use it. Open comb razors are usually not my preference. I prefer mild flat bar razors. I, however, took a chance on the Ares Ti based upon my enjoyment of the Ares v2 Bronze. And, I am definitely glad that I did.

The razor is phenomenal!!!  It is gorgeous, just see Wally’s pictures. That should not surprise anyone. Lambda_Razorssimply makes two of the best looking modern razors. The polished titanium is truly stunning and brings the Ares to another level.  Ares always looked like a work of art…even more so in titanium.

The weight and balance feels perfect to me. Being lighter titanium, the razor is extremely agile. Despite the lighter weight, I did not need to exert any pressure during my shaves. It glided across my face while easily mowing down over two days worth of stubble without needing to apply a little pressure. I used my favorite blade, AccuThrive, for the first shave.  

To my surprise, the best angle was slightly different than the angle I use for the Ares Bronze. Instead of a steep angle I use for Ares Bronze, a more traditional angle felt best to me for Ares Ti. I also had more feeling and feedback with the Ares Ti. My initial thought was that the razor might be more aggressive in titanium. Not so. I had absolutely no irritation or redness. It was just a marvelous shave. The titanium simply felt softer and smoother on my skin.

I used the razor again yesterday with an AccuThrive blade—2 days straight. I wanted to see how Ares Ti performed when I only had light stubble. This is where I usually rely upon very mild razors. I again had an excellent shave. The Ares Ti easily removed the stubble without any irritation or other issues including no redness. Despite having only light stubble, I had excellent feedback and feel. I clearly knew it was going its job.

I was asked about whether I experienced any slipping. I had none. The weight is perfectly balanced and the razor does not slide at all in my hand. When I did the final rinse yesterday, I noticed that I had a decent amount of lather in the grooves of the handle. Despite lather clearing sliding down the handle during my shave, the razor remained secured in my hand with no slipping the entire shave. Anybody who has slipping concerns should strongly consider the Ti.

I had high hopes for the Ares Ti, and my initial shaves exceeded all expectations. Based upon reviews of others of the Athena Ti, both Lambda‘s titanium razors are exceptional shavers. I am extremely happy that I own this magnificent razor.  I highly recommend it if you are considering a new razor. I also, as always, look forward to Wally’s review.

Mike, I have found no decrease in efficiency with the Tithena.  Its weight is perfect as Latherati said and that makes the razor even more maneuverable.  The Athena is at the top of the razor world for me, and the Tithena is the best of the Athenas.

Tithena....
I would never call my Athena ti as Tithena...

Hi,
I received my Ares SS V2 today, and I must say—it looks absolutely fantastic!

Having used the Bronze Athena, I already knew what to expect in terms of performance from my new Athena Ti. The Bronze Athena was an excellent razor—efficient yet mild, striking a perfect balance between comfort and effectiveness. I loved every shave with it.

Now, my Athena Ti is polished, and it looks stunning. In terms of performance, it shaves almost identically to the Bronze Athena. However, for me, the feedback is slightly better—though, as always, YMMV. The efficiency and mildness remain the same, making it a joy to use.

Overall, I’m really pleased with both razors. The polished Athena not only looks amazing but also delivers an exceptional shave, just like its bronze counterpart.

For Ares, the ss and open comb design will definitely make a change. Let's see if I will like the shave
Or how much I will love?

Yeah, I finally quit trying to get one used and waited for new production.

Thanks Mr Dave.

Another great review. Theodoros is killing it with the new materials.

I have another one to show off

Here is the new DLC! It is insane! He started with a mirror SS and applied the DLC. It is black in pictures but different in hand. It has an almost liquid metal look to it. It's different than anything else. The laser etched flats are perfectly executed. Theodoros tells me the DLC is "the pinnacle of what we can do technically...yet".

So glad to add this gem to my den....and congrats to all the new additions around the world as well.
